Financial reports pertaining to UK government councils Leaked:This may affect more than 37 council across UK

Hacks and cyber attacks are increasing day by day. One more hack is added to the list, today we came across a new hack. On the dark web financial reports pertaining to UK government councils that were stolen from a breached server connected to the UK, government network has been shared, according to a bad actor who has revealed.

A user with the name of God revealed the information and also said that the server connecting to the.gov.uk network for financial reports was recently compromised. The data hacked may include:

  • Banking Numbers
  • Banking account names
  • Banking Sort codes
  • Banking balances
  • Banking branches
  • Council Addresses
  • Council administrator usernames
  • Phone numbers
  • Transaction dates
  • Transaction amounts
  • Transaction IDs
  • Signatures

If the information about the hack is true then it is very important for the UK’s government to take it seriously, as the information leaked can be crucial and also lead to problems for the UK’s government. It is also claimed that the data leaked may affect 37 different councils across the United Kingdom.

The data is being shared on the largest leak website Breach Forums. Recently there was a hacker who claimed that he has the source code of TikTok. This led to a widespread rumor that TikTok is not safe anymore. However, TikTok gave an official statement to Thetechoutlook  “Our security team has found no evidence of a security breach. We have confirmed that the data samples in question are all publicly accessible and are not due to any compromise of TikTok systems, networks, or databases. The samples also appear to contain data from one or more third party sources not affiliated with TikTok. We do not believe users need to take any proactive actions, and we remain committed to the safety and security of our global community.”

Breach Forums owner then removed the user AgainstTheWest from posting anymore information on the portal for lying about the details of the hack.
